To Ghent

 It rained overnight and this morning so we decided to take a train part way to Ghent and avoid the rain.  

Getting the bikes in and off the train was a hassle.  At our destination I knocked my frame and the pump shot off and fell between the train and the tracks.  The conductor made  soon to tell me that the pump was gone forever.

The ride along the canal was uneventful and we passed this mural close to Ghent.

We arrived in Ghent around 1 and went out for a tour of the city.  Just in the edge of the city centre is a medieval castle going g back to the time of the crusades.

From the top of the castle we got a great view of Ghent
